(1) Ximen Grottoes

There are many Buddha statues in the grottoes and each has its own characteristics. You can take more pictures. There are many Buddha statues and caves here, and there is no specific route. , you can go to various grottoes according to your own preferences. For example, you can first go to Fengxian Temple, which is the largest open-air niche in the Longmen Grottoes because it contains the largest and tallest Buddha statue - the Lushena Buddha statue. This is a very worthwhile attraction!

Then go to another famous cave - Binyang Cave, where you can see 11 giant Buddhas. The main image is Sakyamuni, with a high nose, big eyes, and an elegant posture. It is a masterpiece of stone carving art in the mid-Northern Wei Dynasty.

There is also a prescription cave, which still contains a Buddha statue, but 140 prescriptions for treating malaria and heartache are carved at the entrance of the cave. It is very good and is a work of the Tang Dynasty!

In the Lotus Cave, there is a round sculpture of the main Buddha Sakyamuni, 5.10 meters high. Although the head and face have been stolen, you can still clearly see the hands of the Buddha stretched forward. Moreover, there are a dazzling array of Buddhist niches in the cave. The niches have exquisite compositions, including pointed arches, lintel arches, eaves arches, necklaces, curtains, tassels, cloud patterns, curly grass patterns, geometric patterns, and exquisite carvings of lotuses and precious flowers. , full of changes. There is a beautiful large lotus carved in high relief on the top of the cave, and six large flying apsaras are carved in high relief next to it. They are graceful and vivid, flying in the wind, and are worth seeing.

Another interesting cave is the Ten Thousand Buddhas Cave. It is named because there are 15,000 small Buddhas neatly arranged on the north and south sides of the cave. Each small Buddha is only 4 centimeters high. It has a structure of front and back chambers, with two strong men and two lions in the front chamber, and a Buddha, two disciples, two Bodhisattvas and two heavenly kings in the back chamber. It is the most complete cave with the most complete statue combination in the Longmen Grottoes. There is a beautiful lotus on the top of the cave, and there is an inscription surrounding the lotus.

The Guyang Cave in Nanshan is also very famous and you can go and see it, because it is the earliest cave excavated in the Longmen Grottoes and has rich content. (2) Dongmen Grottoes

After seeing Ximen Grottoes, you can cross the West Bridge of Yihe River and then go to Dongmen Grottoes. The steps of Dongmen Grottoes are steeper. Although the number of Buddha statues and attracting tourists are not as good as those of Ximen Grottoes, It is for these reasons that the Dongmen Grottoes add a bit of tranquility and solemnity. After crossing an aerial pontoon and arriving at a small hole made of bricks, although the Buddha no longer exists, tourists like to place coins and banknotes of small denominations. Throw yourself into it and pray for the blessings and protection of the gods.

(3) Xiangshan

After getting off the Dongmen Grottoes, you can walk directly to Xiangshan. There are not many roads and the scenery is good!

Xiangshan Temple is located in the east mountain of Longmen, Luoyang. It is named Xiangshan because of its fragrant kudzu. Bai Juyi once wrote, "The suburbs of Luodu are the most beautiful place in terms of mountains and rivers, with Longmen at the top. The ten temples at Longmen are the most beautiful place for sightseeing, and the Fragrant Mountain is the most beautiful."

"On the column posted below Xiangshan Temple, you can see the national celebrities who have visited Xiangshan Temple, including people from the political, military and business circles. Above Xiangshan Temple is a different world, quiet and cool, it can be regarded as a small place. It is a famous summer resort. You can take a photo with Qianlong in the house where the golden statue of Qianlong is displayed! The Guanyin Hall at the back is also very nice. After entering, it is very quiet, and the dignity of Guanyin is very impressive. A sense of solemnity arises in my heart. (4) Baiyuan

After leaving Xiangshan Temple and continuing west, you can reach the legendary Baiyuan! In fact, the scenery of Baiyuan is not that beautiful, but it is beautiful. It is due to the existence of Bai Letian that Baiyuan and even the entire Longmen look more unique. However, the vegetation here is very good and the environment is very good. There are many overseas descendants of the Bai family here. Come back to find your roots and ask about your ancestors, come to Baiyuan, make some repairs to Baiyuan, and carve your name on the stone.

You can eat some local snacks in small restaurants, which will save you money and you can enjoy Luoyang’s local snacks, such as non-flavored soup, spicy spicy soup, donkey meat soup, soup noodle dumplings, slurry noodles, etc. They all taste very good and are very cheap. , all within four yuan! The second stop, Guanlin (afternoon)

Luoyang Guanlin is adjacent to the Sui and Tang Dynasty ancient cities in the north, Longmen Grottoes in the south, Luolong Avenue in the west, and the clear Yishui River in the east. It is one of the three major temples at home and abroad. It is the only ancient classic building complex in my country that combines "tomb, temple and forest". It is also a national AAAA tourist attraction.

Transportation: You can walk first. Arrive at Guanlin South Station, then take bus No. 80 or No. 66, get off at the Longmendao Guanlin South intersection, and then walk to Guanlin. The whole journey takes about 20 minutes. Ticket price: 30 yuan/person<. /p>

After buying the tickets, on the way from Guansheng Street to the scenic spot, the first thing you see is a stone archway built in the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty. Facing the west, the carvings are Yunwen and Yunwu, Bohou Gaoming, Chao The sculptures on the east side are gods and saints, strong and upright, creating a solemn and solemn atmosphere for tourists entering Guanlin.

There is an open square outside the gate of Guanlin. According to legend, it is the thirteenth day of the first lunar month every year. The three major festivals of spring, summer and autumn are held here on May 13th and September 13th respectively. The dance building opposite the gate in the square was built by merchants from Henan, Anhui, Shanxi, Jiangsu and Zhejiang during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. We raised funds to build the building, which is named Qianqiu Jian Tower.

Guanlin has two major gates, both of which are very spectacular. The second major gate is worth seeing! It is the Yimen. The iron lion in front of the Yimen is very interesting. You can take a closer look. Behind the Yimen is the worship hall, where you can see the "Flying Dragon in the Sky", which is known as the most unique thing in Guanlin.

The most worthwhile place to visit in Guanlin is Guanzhong, especially for Taiwanese compatriots. There are two stone archways in front of Guanzhong. The first layer is inscribed with "The Tomb of Hou Tinghou of the Han Dynasty" and the second layer is inscribed. Engraved with "Central Wan Zai"

The third stop, Laoji Snack Street

The snacks in Laoji Snack Street are authentic, delicious and cheap!

Here you can eat soup, donkey meat soup, spicy soup, soup noodle dumplings, slurry noodles, beef soup, etc. The price is cheap and the taste is super good. Of course, when you arrive in Luoyang, you must try Luoyang Water Feast.

The price is not very expensive, about 6.0/bowl. It tastes good and you can try it at Laoji Night Market. Tips: It is very close to Luoyang Railway Station, only about a 20-minute drive. You can take bus No. 56 and get off at Luoyang Railway Station, and then walk to the hotel. If you are in a hurry, you can go directly to the train station to buy a ticket and go home. If you want to go shopping, you can go to Xiguan in the old city or the Youth Palace area, because these places have a complete range of goods at reasonable prices.

Recommended to try Luoyang agar-agar, Luoyang pork slices and Luoyang braised pork. What's really different is that there are many local snacks in Luoyang, such as slurry noodles, sticky noodles, hot noodle dumplings, etc., you can try them.

2. Another Luoyang delicacy that I would like to recommend is Luoyang soup. There are mutton soup, beef soup, donkey meat soup, tofu soup, meatball soup... There are many varieties, each with different tastes. , Southerners may not like it, but I still recommend it because it is very unique and delicious. When choosing a soup restaurant, just look at whether its business is booming to know how it tastes. If there are many people inside, go in and drink. Soup is served for breakfast, and the price is generally 2-3 yuan/bowl, which is very cheap.
